The post is very much educative.
The experience of the Philippines may be treasure for many developing countries.
However,models/initiatives of other countries may also be considered.

Agricultural extension service delivery is very important for e-agriculture interventions to be successful.
I like to know how the agricultural extension service delivery operates.

I appreciate the precious contribution of Brad.
In my opinion,the problem of the adoption of strategy/policy is perhaps universal in the developing countries.The question of top down approach also stems from the same problem.
As the most technologies and systems of ICT and e-agriculture have originated in developed countries
we may find the best ways to utilize them in the context of a developing country.I think utilizing the good knowlege base of the world is a right of the peoples of developing countries as the peoples of the developed ones.

I appreciate Nawsheen for the very informative contribution.
I think you can take more time to assess the state of ICT strategies in Mauritius.

Development in any sector requires proper planning based on existing situation,resoureces,constraints and prospects.Use of e-agriculture may be fruitful for a country if it is properly placed in the context of
existing capacity and expected development.It may not be possible to fix the e-agriculture strategies at higher level unless reqisite technological and finacial capacity are attained.There must be proper evaluation after introduction of any e-agricultural intervention in a particulr area to see how effective the intervention.
It would be wise to introduce e-agriculture intervention in pilot or small scale at the beginning and expanding to larger areas based on the evaluation.
Many factors should be considered in finalizing e-agriculture strategies.Technological,financial,cultural,geographical and environmental aspects are few of them.Any country can't afford to introduce the e-agricultural interventions just on whims.Creation of efficient manpower,infrastructure and relevant policy will take considerable investment,expertise and time.
In view of all these points,I strongly feel that e-agriculture strategies is needed for the agricultural sector to fully realize the benefits of ICTs.
